Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Balatarin at none against iClarified's shown. Balatarin also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 5 months vs every 13 months). iClarified's advantage is ratings volume (1.7K vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
