Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Trace World at free against MooFootprint's freemium. Trace World also leads on update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). MooFootprint's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 87%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
