The clearest difference is ads: IcyBox at none against CatchBack's shown. IcyBox also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). CatchBack's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.3). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
