Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FREEIP at 4.4 against ToSee's 2.0. FREEIP also leads on review sentiment (25% vs 9%). ToSee's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
