Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Eko at 4.9 against CHI Memorial EMS Protocols's 4.0. Eko also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (11K vs 1). CHI Memorial EMS Protocols's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
