Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: AVAPOW at none against TopGuru's 10. AVAPOW also leads on iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). TopGuru's advantage is ratings volume (413 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
