Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Blue Devil Basketball at none against GoHeels's 4. Blue Devil Basketball also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). GoHeels's advantage is ratings volume (1.9K vs 5) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
