Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Channel Link at Free against NetPulse App's $4.99. Channel Link also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 18 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.4). NetPulse App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#186 vs unranked). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
