Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: HiEasy at 4.4 against HAT's 1.0. HiEasy also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). HAT's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
