Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: BookJacked at 5.0 against PADI Training's 3.6. BookJacked also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). PADI Training's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ratings volume (18 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
