Verdict
Related Connect and Epic Charging both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 66% of Epic Charging's written reviews are positive against 15% of Related Connect's. Related Connect's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (1.7K vs 518). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
