Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TeamACTIV at 5.0 against BlazePod's 4.2. TeamACTIV also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 12) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). BlazePod's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 18 months) and ratings volume (233 vs 6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
