Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: OBD JScan at 4.7 against GoPoint's 2.4. OBD JScan also leads on review sentiment (80% vs 38%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). GoPoint's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
