Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: QCY at 2.8 against SonicMax's 1.2. QCY also leads on ratings volume (320 vs 6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). SonicMax's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
