Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bonked at 5.0 against CheckMyRide's 4.3. Bonked also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks). CheckMyRide's advantage is ratings volume (46 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 27.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
