Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: PetCare at Free against Tortoise's $1.99. PetCare also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Tortoise's advantage is review sentiment (63% vs 50%). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
