Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Violin Tuner at 4.3 against ElegooKit's 3.5. Violin Tuner also leads on ratings volume (1.5K vs 74). ElegooKit's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 16 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Violin Tuner holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Violin Tuner has 1.5K ratings behind it against 74, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 41% of Violin Tuner's written reviews are positive against 53% of ElegooKit's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Violin Tuner ships an update every 16 months, ElegooKit monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
