Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MCP Studio at Free against SQLed's $1.99. MCP Studio also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). SQLed's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and chart position (#56 vs unranked). On in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
