Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BitSpeed at none against Speed Tracker's shown. BitSpeed also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 14 months). Speed Tracker's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.5). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
