Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Tuner+ at 4.7 against Tuner Eclipse's 3.7. Tuner+ also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 24) and review sentiment (82% vs 70%). Tuner Eclipse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.1 vs 13.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
