Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fox Marine at 80% against NaviLU's 29%. Fox Marine also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months) and chart position (#164 vs unranked). NaviLU's advantage is price (Free vs $4.99) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
