Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Reading log at none against Book Tracker's 2. Reading log also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.1 vs 3.7). Book Tracker's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 13 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
