Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Sensi at monthly against Columbia CC's every 8 months. Sensi also leads on ratings volume (248K vs 1). Columbia CC's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
