OpenTerm's advantage is rating (4.2 vs 1.0) and ratings volume (190 vs 1). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Estimote UWB is free to download; OpenTerm costs $4.99 up front. OpenTerm sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Estimote UWB asks for nothing beyond the download.

OpenTerm holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 1.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 44% of OpenTerm's written reviews are positive against 100% of Estimote UWB's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
