Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Daze at none against Milestone's 2. Daze also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). Milestone's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
