Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Offline Map at none against GPS Data's shown. Offline Map also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (89% vs 77%). GPS Data's advantage is ratings volume (458 vs 44). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
