The call

The clearest difference is rating: SPAX at 4.4 against Walking Machine's 2.8. SPAX also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (345 vs 4). Walking Machine's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 31). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
