Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Palettable at none against ColorPalette Maker's 1. Palettable also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). ColorPalette Maker's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price there is nothing between them.
