Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: KarreMES at none against SecuritySpy's 1. KarreMES also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). SecuritySpy's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
