Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Capture for IC2 at free against GHA DISCOVERY's free with in-app purchases. Capture for IC2 also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). GHA DISCOVERY's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 1) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
