Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: IVE at none against Construction Calculator's 15. IVE also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). Construction Calculator's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
