Verdict
Garmin Connect™ and App Bodytech both sit at 4.4 stars, but that hides the real split: 61% of App Bodytech's written reviews are positive against 35% of Garmin Connect™'s. App Bodytech also leads on device support (4 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). Garmin Connect™'s advantage is ratings volume (58K vs 172) and chart position (#19 vs unranked). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
