Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Guestbooc at Free against Name's $0.99. Guestbooc also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 months) and iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 16.6). Name's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and chart position (#94 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
