Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MAVLink Telemetry at none against DeltaPad's 1. MAVLink Telemetry also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.2). DeltaPad's advantage is chart position (#194 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
