Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Einstein Recall at 100% against GettyGuide's 50%. Einstein Recall also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.2) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). GettyGuide's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (43 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
