Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: EasyPark at 4.8 against ZipBy's 4.0. EasyPark also leads on ratings volume (9.6K vs 636) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). ZipBy's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
