Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: YMDA at 5.0 against GranPlayer's 2.7. YMDA also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 6) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). GranPlayer's advantage is ratings volume (50 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
