Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Elevate DC at 5.0 against The St. James's 3.1. Elevate DC also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). The St. James's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 1) and device support. On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
