Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Signals at none against Thunderstorm simulation's shown. Signals also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 7 months). Thunderstorm simulation's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
