Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Crux at 5.0 against Trib E's 4.5. The Crux also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 80%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Trib E's advantage is ratings volume (30 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
