Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Cops and Karens at none against EV Charging Map's shown. Cops and Karens also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). EV Charging Map's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
