Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HARI's Salon at none against Intelligence Squared+'s 2. HARI's Salon also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.6). Intelligence Squared+'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 12 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
