Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Simple Copy at 5.0 against PDF's 1.0. Simple Copy also leads on ratings volume (15 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.6). PDF's advantage is price ($3.99 vs $4.99). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
