Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Intro at 4.9 against Beacons United's 4.5. Intro also leads on ratings volume (2.3K vs 6) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Beacons United's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
