Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: XMcosy+ at 4.7 against BRmesh's 2.4. XMcosy+ also leads on ratings volume (1.1K vs 286) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). BRmesh's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and review sentiment (25% vs 17%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

XMcosy+ holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.1K and 286 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 17% of XMcosy+'s written reviews are positive against 25% of BRmesh's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
