Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: ClassBuddy at 100% against 学习通's 48%. ClassBuddy also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.6) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). 学习通's advantage is ratings volume (253 vs 6) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
