Both are free to download. CarbitLink sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Changan GPS by Hunter asks for nothing beyond the download.
CarbitLink holds the better App Store score, 2.3 against 2.0.

Written reviews complicate that: 25% of Changan GPS by Hunter's written reviews are positive against 5% of CarbitLink's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
