Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Gotham Oracle at 5.0 against Apollo ID's 4.0. Gotham Oracle also leads on ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 78%). Apollo ID's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (124 vs 13). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
