Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: CloudyBay at 2.5 against Fitop's 1.4. CloudyBay also leads on ratings volume (84 vs 9) and review sentiment (18% vs 10%). Fitop's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
