Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shortest Path at none against DeliveryRoute's 3. Shortest Path also leads on ads (none vs shown). DeliveryRoute's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
