Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CSI Pro at none against ApiClient's 1. CSI Pro also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 16.0). ApiClient's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
