Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GovBuddy Connect at none against CFR 46's 3. GovBuddy Connect also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 12 months). CFR 46's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
