Verdict
The clearest difference is price: AR Clip at Free against EyeTV's $4.99. AR Clip also leads on rating (5.0 vs 1.7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). EyeTV's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 16.0). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
