Both are free to download. RBF sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per 7 days. Maya asks for nothing beyond the download.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Maya against 5.0 for RBF. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Maya has 10 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
