Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: ProhostAI at every 2 days against VRMA's every 10 months. ProhostAI also leads on ratings volume (36 vs 1) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). VRMA's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
