Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: ANBPrepaid at free against EducationCU Mobile's free with in-app purchases. ANBPrepaid also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). EducationCU Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (4.5K vs 3). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
