Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Epowi at free against Panera Bread's free with in-app purchases. Epowi also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Panera Bread's advantage is ratings volume (1.3M vs 1) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Panera Bread against 5.0 for Epowi. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Panera Bread has 1.3M ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
