Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SPEAKERCRAFT Sub Station at none against Helm's 1. SPEAKERCRAFT Sub Station also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17). Helm's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 23 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
