Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MyDST at 4.3 against Popular MY's 3.5. MyDST also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (2K vs 4). Popular MY's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

MyDST holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5.
