The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MyDyson™ at none against Petlibro's 12. MyDyson™ also leads on review sentiment (29% vs 13%) and ratings volume (36K vs 7.4K). Petlibro's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
