Verdict
The clearest difference is price: A at Free against ViolinTuningWatch's $0.99. A also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 38 months). ViolinTuningWatch's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.5). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
