Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: XKcommand at none against Ride ID's 4. XKcommand also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16). Ride ID's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (40 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
