Verdict
The clearest difference is price: NerdCalc at Free against UnitFlowPro's $1.99. NerdCalc also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (183 vs 1). UnitFlowPro's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 19 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
