Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Halogen Sensor Mobile at none against Sensor Labs's 1. Halogen Sensor Mobile also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 17.0). Sensor Labs's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 6 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
