Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Bracket Builder at Free against Round Robin's $0.99. Bracket Builder also leads on rating (4.4 vs 2.0) and update cadence (weekly vs every 7 months). Round Robin's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
