Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: MyRiiver at weekly against CITIZEN CONNECTED's every 4 months. MyRiiver also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). CITIZEN CONNECTED's advantage is ratings volume (3.4K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
