Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Bugko at Free against Bauelemente's $1.99. Bugko also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Bauelemente's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
