Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: See at 100% against CoCoRaHS's 40%. CoCoRaHS's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (3.9 vs 3.4). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CoCoRaHS holds the better App Store score, 3.9 against 3.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 15 and 5 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of CoCoRaHS's written reviews are positive against 100% of See's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
