Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Encore! Score Sheet at 100% against X's 56%. Encore! Score Sheet also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). X's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (210 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
