Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hoardware at none against Inflation Calculator's 4. Hoardware also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). Inflation Calculator's advantage is ratings volume (3.6K vs 16). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
