Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Afarie at none against GoChat Messenger's 10. Afarie also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). GoChat Messenger's advantage is ratings volume (5.8K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.2). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Afarie holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoChat Messenger has 5.8K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
