Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Gonks at 5.0 against Tangle's 4.6. Gonks also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Tangle's advantage is ratings volume (27 vs 1) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
