Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Zest Charging at every 8 days against AMP EV's monthly. Zest Charging also leads on review sentiment (27% vs 18%) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.0). AMP EV's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
