Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: DigiMedal at 5.0 against YouRace's 3.8. DigiMedal also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly) and review sentiment (100% vs 85%). YouRace's advantage is ratings volume (12 vs 1) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
