Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Sequel at Free against Turbometer's $0.99. Sequel also leads on ratings volume (1.3K vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). Turbometer's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly). On review sentiment, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
