Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Learning It at free against iTrace's freemium. Learning It also leads on iOS requirement (10.3 vs 17.1). iTrace's advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 64). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iTrace sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Learning It sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.4 for iTrace against 4.4 for Learning It. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iTrace has 2.5K ratings behind it against 64, so its average is the more settled of the two.
