Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Yielded at free with in-app purchases against Cofactor's subscription. Yielded also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Cofactor's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
