Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: F at none against Permanent Portfolio Tracker's shown. F also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). Permanent Portfolio Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
