The clearest difference is rating: HkyPro at 5.0 against CDFW License's 2.8. HkyPro also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 months). CDFW License's advantage is ratings volume (98 vs 4) and chart position (#210 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
