Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Nevvi at Free against Open Relay's $9.99. Nevvi also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 89%) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.1). Open Relay's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and chart position (#93 vs unranked). On rating, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
