Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: VanityStyle Next at none against PlayCadence's 5. VanityStyle Next also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). PlayCadence's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
