Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Flight Time Calculator at none against Pilot Logbook's 2. Flight Time Calculator also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). Pilot Logbook's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 13 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
