Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: ReliefRadar at 5.0 against meterEZ's 3.6. ReliefRadar also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). meterEZ's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (38 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
