Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ChoreWheel at none against iTerminal's 1. ChoreWheel also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). iTerminal's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price there is nothing between them.
