The clearest difference is rating: 123Play at 3.7 against Movify's 2.0. 123Play also leads on ratings volume (7K vs 1) and review sentiment (15% vs 0%). Movify's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. 123Play sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Movify asks for nothing beyond the download.
