Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Applause ! at 4.4 against ClApp!'s 2.7. Applause ! also leads on review sentiment (79% vs 40%) and ratings volume (1.4K vs 7). ClApp!'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 12.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
