Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: KHDestiny at 100% against Pods's 28%. KHDestiny also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and in-app purchases (none vs 2). Pods's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (345 vs 4). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
