Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Trackimo + at Free against GPS Trace's $3.99. Trackimo + also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). GPS Trace's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
