Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FirstStep School at none against Bites's 8. FirstStep School also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Bites's advantage is ratings volume (2.2K vs 4) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
