Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Edco Learning at none against Grinds 360's 1. Edco Learning also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). Grinds 360's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
