Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Nikud at 5.0 against Hebrew Nikud's 2.8. Nikud also leads on update cadence (every 9 days vs every 39 months) and price ($2.99 vs $4.99). Hebrew Nikud's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.6). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
