Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Baby Journal at 5.0 against INTEX Link's 2.2. Baby Journal also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months). INTEX Link's advantage is monetization model (free vs paid) and ratings volume (17 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
