Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Gengou Lib at none against DojoMate's 2. Gengou Lib also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). DojoMate's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 61 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
