Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: OverloadPro at 100% against FitNotes's 59%. OverloadPro also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). FitNotes's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 9) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
