Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: After Fact at none against Recap's shown. After Fact also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.2). Recap's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 13 months). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
