Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: GameChanger at 4.9 against WhatsTheScore?'s 3.7. GameChanger also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 40 months) and ratings volume (917K vs 27). WhatsTheScore?'s advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price, review sentiment, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
