Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Cleens at 100% against The Drop Date's 0%. Cleens also leads on rating (4.8 vs 2.7) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). The Drop Date's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
