Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: NCI at none against The Influence Lab's 1. NCI also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.6). The Influence Lab's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
