Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: LedgerDocs at none against BrightHR's shown. LedgerDocs also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). BrightHR's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
