Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Ish Clock at none against SYSMonitor's 1. Ish Clock also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months). SYSMonitor's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
