Magic FX's advantage is monetization model (freemium vs subscription) and ratings volume (3.3K vs 4). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Magic FX sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Clean My iPhone sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
