Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: UkeLib Chords at none against BariFlow's 1. UkeLib Chords also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). BariFlow's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs monthly). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
