Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: myUplink at every 3 weeks against alpha control's every 11 months. myUplink also leads on review sentiment (13% vs 0%). alpha control's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
