Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Connection at every 5 days against GeoConnect's every 3 months. Connection also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). GeoConnect's advantage is ratings volume (40 vs 1) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
