If you want to know a little bit about a X.509 certificate CertTool has you covered. Just select a file in PEM or DER format that contains the certificate and it will show you some details. And if you just want to share the certificate to the app, you can do that as well.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: CertTool at Free against SSL Toolkit's $9.99. SSL Toolkit's advantage is chart position (#117 vs unranked) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). On ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
