The dynamicWatch Companion for your iPhone and iPad lets you sync your dynamicWatch routes and settings to your phone, and then later send routes to the dwMap navigation app on your Garmin watch without needing an Internet connection. Perfect for that backcountry hike, ultra-run or long distance bike ride! The dwMap Connect IQ app on your Garmin GPS watch lets you explore new routes while you run, bike and hike, and already offers fast, wireless sync'ing with the dynamicWatch website. Normally the watch app downloads routes directly from the web site and you do not need this Companion app. However if you sometimes change the dwMap route when you don't have an Internet connection, the Companion app lets you take your dynamicWatch routes offline, and change the route on the watch at any time. The Companion app will sync your routes to the phone whenever you open it, and lets you choose which will be available even if the phone is later offline. You can import GPX route files saved on your phone or shared by other maps and routes app, and send them directly to dwMap on your watch. You can also change popular dwMap app settings, such as activity type, on the fly, and search for new destinations and create new "Quick Route" from your current location. Premium users can also browse their Strava and Ride with GPS routes, and their dynamicWatch Collections directly within the app, and send them to dwMap on their watch. The dwMap Connect IQ app to use on your Garmin watch is available from the Garmin App Store at https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/2750f280-82f4-4f21-a32c-57acc7ce4870

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: dynamicWatch Companion at none against Sof's 2. dynamicWatch Companion also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.0). Sof's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
