Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Summary Board at 5.0 against Booklet's 3.8. Summary Board also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.6). Booklet's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (26 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
