Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: The Local Ledger at none against Frost Buddy's shown. The Local Ledger also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks). Frost Buddy's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Frost Buddy against 5.0 for The Local Ledger. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Frost Buddy has 2.1K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
