The clearest difference is rating: OpenSub at 5.0 against Pinlist's 4.2. OpenSub also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). Pinlist's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (16 vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pinlist sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per year. OpenSub asks for nothing beyond the download.
