The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Simple Match at none against DropNumber's 2. Simple Match also leads on ads (none vs shown). DropNumber's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
