Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Bad Virus at none against Virus Evolution's 9. Bad Virus also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). Virus Evolution's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 4 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
