Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Goldy at Free against Browser's $0.99. Goldy also leads on ads (none vs shown). Browser's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 83%) and update cadence (every 21 months vs every 44 months). On rating, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
