Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Math. at 74% against goSTAAR's 0%. Math. also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 11 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). goSTAAR's advantage is monetization model (free vs subscription). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
