I created this app on my Ocarina learning journey as I became aware how different breath pressure has to be for Low and high notes. I'm using it to try and perfect my notes, feel free to use it for your training too.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ocarina Trainer at none against Keylimba's 1. Ocarina Trainer also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). Keylimba's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
