Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Generac Go at 100% against Jackery's 27%. Generac Go also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.3). Jackery's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
