Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: iDash at 4.5 against Test & Check for iPhone's 3.9. iDash also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). Test & Check for iPhone's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 50%) and ratings volume (42 vs 11). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
