Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: InsigniaTrader at free against ThinkTrader's free with in-app purchases. InsigniaTrader also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). ThinkTrader's advantage is ratings volume (797 vs 3) and update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
