Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iGlicho at none against GlucoLive's 2. iGlicho also leads on iOS requirement (16.1 vs 18.0). GlucoLive's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and review sentiment (100% vs 76%). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
