Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Barometer.. at 5.0 against Barometric Pressure's 4.1. Barometer.. also leads on iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.0). Barometric Pressure's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (56 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
