Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GEO Utility at none against Read A Res's 1. GEO Utility also leads on ads (none vs shown). Read A Res's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
