Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SpeedLab at none against Ferrata Guide's 1. SpeedLab also leads on ads (none vs shown). Ferrata Guide's advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 weeks) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.5). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
