Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: FBS Exercise at free with in-app purchases against YLMSportScience's subscription. FBS Exercise also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months). YLMSportScience's advantage is review sentiment (70% vs 33%) and rating (4.5 vs 4.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
