Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Destination GO at 5.0 against Frndly TV's 3.6. Destination GO also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). Frndly TV's advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
