Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Linkty at Free against Strongbox Pro's $99.99. Linkty also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Strongbox Pro's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and device support (5 vs 2). On ads there is nothing between them.
