Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RainoutLine at none against sidelineHD's 6. RainoutLine also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.6). sidelineHD's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 22%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 11 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
