Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Markdown Editor at none against iMarkdown's 3. Markdown Editor also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). iMarkdown's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
