Verdict
The clearest difference is price: UpMap at Free against RaceChrono Pro's $19.99. UpMap also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (13 vs 15.6). RaceChrono Pro's advantage is rating (4.7 vs 3.9) and ratings volume (184 vs 8). On ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
