Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SoundEyeMobile at none against Visionauta's 2. SoundEyeMobile also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.2). Visionauta's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
