Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ProgressBar at none against MapGenie's 1. ProgressBar also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 39 months). MapGenie's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
