Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ClassBuddy at 100% against 知到.'s 20%. ClassBuddy also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.2) and in-app purchases (none vs 11). 知到.'s advantage is ratings volume (323 vs 6) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
