Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: AlexConnects at free against DoorLoop's freemium. AlexConnects also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). DoorLoop's advantage is ratings volume (4.1K vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
