Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: BBT Access at 5.0 against MyHSS's 4.5. BBT Access also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.2). MyHSS's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 2) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 6 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
