Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Block Shaper at Free against Atomic Linking's $1.99. Block Shaper also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). Atomic Linking's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
