Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: MCM Events at none against Millennium Running's shown. MCM Events also leads on review sentiment (98% vs 75%) and ratings volume (847 vs 40). Millennium Running's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
