Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: FRED Connect at none against Deckboard's shown. FRED Connect also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). Deckboard's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
