Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Ham2K Portable Logger at none against SoloScribe's shown. Ham2K Portable Logger also leads on ratings volume (61 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.1). SoloScribe's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
