EcoJump and Cardo Connect both sit at 4.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 67% of EcoJump's written reviews are positive against 24% of Cardo Connect's. EcoJump also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). Cardo Connect's advantage is ratings volume (30K vs 5) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
