Verdict
The clearest difference is price: MyFW at Free against GunBase's $39.99. MyFW also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and ratings volume (31 vs 1). GunBase's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.1) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
