Verdict

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flutabby at none against ProxMate's 6. Flutabby also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). ProxMate's advantage is chart position (#142 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
