Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: SGF CityView at none against Daily Progress's shown. SGF CityView also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Daily Progress's advantage is ratings volume (8 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
