Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NoiseBlend at none against Voice Over Stopwatch's 1. NoiseBlend also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). Voice Over Stopwatch's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
