Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: NSC Exam Prep at free against Matric Live's free with in-app purchases. NSC Exam Prep also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.5). Matric Live's advantage is review sentiment (35% vs 20%) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
