Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Grade Aid at none against Easy Grade's shown. Grade Aid also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Easy Grade's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (11K vs 3). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Grade Aid sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Easy Grade sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
