Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KeyHelper at none against iTranscribe's 10. KeyHelper also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). iTranscribe's advantage is ratings volume (6.9K vs 1) and chart position (#152 vs unranked). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
