Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Ivy Charging Network at none against Rivvy's shown. Ivy Charging Network also leads on review sentiment (19% vs 0%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Rivvy's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
