Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pool at none against GoToHole's 4. Pool also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (72K vs 1). GoToHole's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and review sentiment (100% vs 76%). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
