Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TrackStar NYC at 5.0 against EVEN's 3.9. TrackStar NYC also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 63%) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 weeks). EVEN's advantage is ratings volume (46 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
