Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: 论子平 at 67% against 星島A1's 17%. 论子平 also leads on rating (3.6 vs 2.7) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). 星島A1's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
