Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Climb at none against Shelf Sort's 6. Climb also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (10 vs 3). Shelf Sort's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 17 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating and review sentiment there is nothing between them.
