Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Outside at every 3 weeks against Motoring World's every 7 months. Outside also leads on chart position (#166 vs unranked). Motoring World's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
