Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: USask Rec at none against The Commns's shown. USask Rec also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 16.0). The Commns's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
