Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Carpool Schaeffler at free against Urbvan's free with in-app purchases. Carpool Schaeffler also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). Urbvan's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (20% vs 0%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
