Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: JokeBook Go at 100% against Casting Networks's 22%. JokeBook Go also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Casting Networks's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (1.6K vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
