Impulso Pro is a room acoustics measurement and analysis software. It allows you to measure the acoustic response of your room using your iPhone. You can visualize the measured reverberation time (RT) in octave bands and then simulate how the acoustic response of your room will be improved when adding artnovion acoustic products. You can enter room dimensions and select the type of room you are designing for. The app will then offer guidelines for the expected RT and you can select products to optimize the response accordingly. Impulso Pro also provides detailed plots of energy time curves, to check for undesirable reflections, a frequency plot, which you can zoom in and a table with the acoustic parameters of your measurements such as C80, D50, STI and Bass Ratio. Impulso Pro allows you to take a measurement with an internally generated signal if you are able to play it via a loudspeaker system, or using an external impulse source, such as a balloon, if you don’t. You can also display a spectral plot of the microphone input in real time. Compatible with built-in or external microphones.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SkyScan at 5.0 against Impulso Pro's 1.0. SkyScan also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months) and price ($0.99 vs $2.99). Impulso Pro's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On ratings volume, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
