Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: StorkeCentral at 4.2 against Extempore's 2.4. StorkeCentral also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months).

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
StorkeCentral holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 2.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Extempore has 85 ratings behind it against 15, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 49% of Extempore's written reviews are positive against 40% of StorkeCentral's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Extempore ships an update every 2 months, StorkeCentral every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 6, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
