Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 100Bus at none against CanGoNow's 2. 100Bus also leads on ads (none vs shown). CanGoNow's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.1). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
