Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: CC Metronome at Free against SL Air's $6.99. CC Metronome also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). SL Air's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and chart position (#197 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
