Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Hill Lists at 94% against ZEHNDER Control's 33%. Hill Lists also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 12 months). ZEHNDER Control's advantage is price (Free vs $1.99) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
