Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ConnectEBT at 3.9 against VECU's 3.1. ConnectEBT also leads on ratings volume (6.8K vs 7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). VECU's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
