Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Nono Islands at 4.7 against Turnscape's 4.2. Nono Islands also leads on ratings volume (6.2K vs 241) and review sentiment (80% vs 64%). Turnscape's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 16.6). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
