Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Dush at 100% against MARTA's 13%. Dush also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 weeks). MARTA's advantage is ratings volume (6.2K vs 6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
