Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mathly at none against One Clue Crossword's 10. Mathly also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). One Clue Crossword's advantage is chart position (#210 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
