Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Hexel at 4.9 against RingJet's 4.0. Hexel also leads on ratings volume (19 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.2 vs 18.0). RingJet's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, update cadence and device support there is nothing between them.
