Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ballbutton at none against TennisLedger's 2. Ballbutton also leads on ratings volume (605 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). TennisLedger's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
