Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Massage Pillow at 4.2 against Vibrate+'s 2.9. Massage Pillow also leads on review sentiment (77% vs 60%) and ratings volume (478 vs 43). Vibrate+'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
