Verdict
The clearest difference is price: VFLEX App at Free against iFTx's $1.99. VFLEX App also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 6 months). iFTx's advantage is ratings volume (70 vs 2). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
