Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Noki Express at none against BrightHR's shown. Noki Express also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). BrightHR's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
