Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MyRide SGF at none against Transit.Tracker's 6. MyRide SGF also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (50% vs 20%). Transit.Tracker's advantage is rating (4.5 vs 4.0) and ratings volume (3.4K vs 3). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Transit.Tracker sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. MyRide SGF asks for nothing beyond the download.
Transit.Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Transit.Tracker has 3.4K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of Transit.Tracker's written reviews are positive against 50% of MyRide SGF's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
