Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Count How Many at 5.0 against Grid's 4.4. Count How Many also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Grid's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
