Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ARARally at none against Rally Tripmeter's 5. ARARally also leads on ratings volume (632 vs 94) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.6). Rally Tripmeter's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.5) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
