Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GPS Stone at none against Uferzone's 4. GPS Stone also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). Uferzone's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 21 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
