Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BlocklyLab at none against Pebble Coding's 4. BlocklyLab also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 11.0). Pebble Coding's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
