Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Garmin Connect™ at 4.4 against iClub's 1.0. Garmin Connect™ also leads on ratings volume (59K vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). iClub's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
