Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MetaWear at none against Coursicle's 3. MetaWear also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (50% vs 38%). Coursicle's advantage is ratings volume (822 vs 1) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

MetaWear holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8.

Coursicle ships an update every 9 days, MetaWear every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 2, 2026 and October 29, 2026 respectively.
