Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Spooly at none against Limits's 3. Spooly also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). Limits's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days) and chart position (#168 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
