Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AdvantageScope XR at none against FTRunner's 1. AdvantageScope XR also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). FTRunner's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
