Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: JyvaskylaAir at none against Lightning Tracker's 1. JyvaskylaAir also leads on ads (none vs shown). Lightning Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 4 months vs every 11 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
