Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Minimo at Free against Local PDF's $9.99. Minimo also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). Local PDF's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
