Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Peer at none against College Algebra's 1. Peer also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 7 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). College Algebra's advantage is ratings volume (602 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
