Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: ChatX at fortnightly against Zane's every 4 months. ChatX also leads on ratings volume (482 vs 30). Zane's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Zane sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and ChatX sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
