Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Easy Grade at 81% against ActivCast Sender's 13%. Easy Grade also leads on rating (4.9 vs 3.0) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months). ActivCast Sender's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
