Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HumanController at none against AR Metaverse's 4. HumanController also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%). AR Metaverse's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 32 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
