Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: MyVMS at 99% against X's 50%. MyVMS also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.0) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 15 months). X's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
