Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MyMazda at none against HiveIT's 2. MyMazda also leads on ratings volume (210K vs 4) and chart position (#210 vs unranked). HiveIT's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
