Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KartBoard Dash at none against Red 1's 1. KartBoard Dash also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks). Red 1's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
