Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: •bullet at none against Simple List App's 3. •bullet also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). Simple List App's advantage is ratings volume (398 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.0). On price there is nothing between them.
