Could someone help me with the next move here? Everything checks out so far, but I'm kind of stuck.
The hints given by my sudoku app are absolutely worthless. "This box is a 7." ..t-thanks

just try starting with 4 in the middle row, it it fails go with 8

That did occur to me, but trial and error sort of feels like cheating. There must be some logical way to work it out.
Whenever it gets to this point, I don't know a better option than 50-50 and roll with it.
I'd be interested in finding a better strategy too.

if the puzzle has a unique solution then it is not trial and error
if the puzzle have multiple solutions then trial and error is the only option
Thus...
I find it's quickest to consider one number. In this board, 8 gets the fastest check.
