Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AFBE at none against RapidScout's 2. AFBE also leads on ratings volume (86 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 26.5). RapidScout's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
