Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Learn Muscles at every 2 months against AnatomyMapp's every 11 months. Learn Muscles also leads on price ($4.99 vs $9.99) and review sentiment (86% vs 66%). AnatomyMapp's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.6) and chart position (#16 vs #160). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
