Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Petcove at 4.4 against Havaworks's 2.2. Petcove also leads on review sentiment (63% vs 22%) and ratings volume (498 vs 65). Havaworks's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
