Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Rocksmith Tuner at none against MathLens's 2. Rocksmith Tuner also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). MathLens's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
