Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Boxer at 100% against Mr Price App's 45%. Boxer also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Mr Price App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (505 vs 1). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
