Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Covenant Match at none against CandidHeart's 1. Covenant Match also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.2). CandidHeart's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
