Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CIF at none against Swing Coach's 2. CIF also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). Swing Coach's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and chart position (#51 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
