Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Safe@Work at none against Build Regs Ireland's 2. Safe@Work also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 15 months). Build Regs Ireland's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
