Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: My Life Map at Free against Open's $2.99. My Life Map also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 22 months). Open's advantage is chart position (#151 vs unranked) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
