Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: justREC at none against Device Settings's shown. justREC also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). Device Settings's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
