Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Glonass Rus at none against Guru Maps's 3. Glonass Rus also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Guru Maps's advantage is chart position (#143 vs unranked) and device support (5 vs 3). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
