Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CE at 100% against CoPilot GPS Navigation's 35%. CE also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 11) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). CoPilot GPS Navigation's advantage is ratings volume (2K vs 4) and chart position (#47 vs unranked). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
