Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Beacon Simulator at 5.0 against GLKVM's 3.5. GLKVM's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and ratings volume (10 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Beacon Simulator holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GLKVM has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Beacon Simulator's written reviews are positive against 40% of GLKVM's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
