Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SubWatch at 5.0 against Subly's 1.7. SubWatch also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Subly's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
