Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Currency Lab at 5.0 against MyNafa's 4.4. Currency Lab also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). MyNafa's advantage is ratings volume (21 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
