Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Salesforce Maps at none against TrueContext's 1. Salesforce Maps also leads on iOS requirement (11.1 vs 18.0). TrueContext's advantage is rating (2.3 vs 1.9) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
