Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mandolin Tuner at none against StripLink's 1. Mandolin Tuner also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). StripLink's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 16 months). On price there is nothing between them.
