Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: iHour at free with in-app purchases against Quadrant List's subscription. iHour also leads on ratings volume (815 vs 29). Quadrant List's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. iHour sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.49 per month and Quadrant List sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
iHour holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: iHour has 815 ratings behind it against 29, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 90% of iHour's written reviews are positive against 92% of Quadrant List's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
iHour ships an update every 6 weeks, Quadrant List fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 1, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
