Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Alecto security at Free against Macro Mode's $2.99. Alecto security also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (6.1 vs 15.0). Macro Mode's advantage is ratings volume (95 vs 1) and chart position (#115 vs unranked). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
