Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: mhPBX at none against Potatso's 1. mhPBX also leads on ads (none vs shown). Potatso's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (6.1K vs 17). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
