Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Citizens Access at 4.9 against Ally iConnect's 1.6. Citizens Access also leads on review sentiment (33% vs 0%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 14 months). Ally iConnect's advantage is iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
