Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: School24 at none against Marqa's shown. School24 also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). Marqa's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 5 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
