Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iGulu at 5.0 against Pinter App's 4.0. iGulu also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly). Pinter App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
