Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GIGL at none against GroupSocial's 4. GIGL also leads on update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). GroupSocial's advantage is ratings volume (109 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
