Unlike many Athan apps, Moon streamlines the process of finding out when and where to pray salah. Immediately, you will know the current salah and where to point to the Kabbah. It was designed to be a little-to-no tap user experience. It was engineered with precision for the most accurate readings so you know exactly when to begin salah. And most importantly, it eliminated a lot of distractions like ads and premiums. Moon is the ultimate expression for what an Athan app should be and how it should work.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Moon at none against Prayer Times's 4. Moon also leads on ads (none vs shown). Prayer Times's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (36 vs 6). On price and rating there is nothing between them.
