Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Simple Microphone at none against EZ Microphone's 1. Simple Microphone also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). EZ Microphone's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
