Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: EcoFlow at 4.6 against SBCapp's 3.0. EcoFlow also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (8.8K vs 2). SBCapp's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
