Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tonality Visualizer at none against GrandScore's 1. Tonality Visualizer also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). GrandScore's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
