Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Wallbox at 4.5 against power2max's 1.3. Wallbox also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (3.8K vs 48). power2max's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
