Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Circuit Snap at none against Aether Circuit's shown. Circuit Snap also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Aether Circuit's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
