Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LibraryTools.com at none against QuickScan Book Leveler's 4. LibraryTools.com also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). QuickScan Book Leveler's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 21 months) and ratings volume (917 vs 3). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
