Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CKD at none against Referral Tracker's 1. CKD also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Referral Tracker's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 8 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
