Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: BufferIt at 100% against Screen Recorder's 32%. BufferIt also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription). Screen Recorder's advantage is ratings volume (3.1K vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Screen Recorder sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 7 days and BufferIt sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
