Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TraffiXim at Free against Freeways's $2.99. TraffiXim also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.7) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Freeways's advantage is ratings volume (503 vs 5) and chart position (#129 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
