Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mitek at none against CollegeSave Planner's 1. Mitek also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). CollegeSave Planner's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
