Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Project Renew at none against LazyFit's 10. Project Renew also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). LazyFit's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (82K vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
