Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: X at 58% against MyBell's 18%. X also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). MyBell's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (6.5K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
