Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: VU202 at 94% against Auxfeed's 50%. VU202 also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.6) and ratings volume (33 vs 5). Auxfeed's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
