Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CIARE CDSP1 at none against Relic Stereo's 1. CIARE CDSP1 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). Relic Stereo's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
