Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: 7 at 4.7 against homehub's 3.5. 7 also leads on ratings volume (334 vs 2) and review sentiment (36% vs 13%). homehub's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
