The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: FitConsole at none against MCF Thrivified's 4. FitConsole also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.0). MCF Thrivified's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 weeks) and review sentiment (28% vs 11%). On price, rating, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
