Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: u at none against magicplan's 12. u also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). magicplan's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 8 months) and chart position (#160 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
