Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Planet Track Mini at none against Tide Graph Pro's 2. Planet Track Mini also leads on price ($0.99 vs $5.99). Tide Graph Pro's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 27.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
