Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Diver Dan at 4.6 against Brave Diver's 1.0. Diver Dan also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Brave Diver's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
