Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iStructly at none against App Preview Recorder's 1. iStructly also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 9 days). App Preview Recorder's advantage is iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
