The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Economic Research Tracker at none against EconShot's 2. Economic Research Tracker also leads on ratings volume (17 vs 2) and device support (3 vs 1). EconShot's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 67%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. EconShot sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Economic Research Tracker asks for nothing beyond the download.
