Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Apache Junction PD at none against Compass's 3. Apache Junction PD also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 16.0). Compass's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 22 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
