Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: fuelOS at free with in-app purchases against MacroFactor Workouts's subscription. fuelOS also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 74%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). MacroFactor Workouts's advantage is ratings volume (4.6K vs 12) and chart position (#124 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MacroFactor Workouts sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month and fuelOS sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
