Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MilleFeed（みるフィード） at none against Byline 5's 2. MilleFeed（みるフィード） also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months). Byline 5's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 14.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
