Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Transitions Layouts at none against Flat Pattern Bend Calculator's shown. Transitions Layouts also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Flat Pattern Bend Calculator's advantage is ratings volume (151 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
