Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: iSmartVideo at none against BMS by GDriver's 1. iSmartVideo also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 16.4). BMS by GDriver's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
