Duet Alarm is an intelligent geofence alarm that is built to smartly alert you of various location based events. Some typical examples are: * Wakes you up to get off train no matter it's earlier or delayed. * Shows you the current traffic around alarm area when you leaving home so that you can choose the less traffic route to take. * Warns you when entering an area where extra caution is required, such as high-crime, dangerous-corner, speeding cameras, ticketing-traps etc. * Reminds you to visit preset POIs when touring a new city. * Reminds you to take a picture of where you parked before leaving the huge parking lot where you often got lost. * and many other things or events that are location related... It's designed to be extremely prudent on energy consumption - typical usage is less than 1% per day. ** Do NOTE that Duet Alarm doesn't work well on iPod or iPad models without GPS capability. **

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: RMRGuide at none against Duet Alarm's 2. RMRGuide also leads on ads (none vs shown). Duet Alarm's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
