Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HelloNature at none against Nature Guide's 1. HelloNature also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (6 vs 1). Nature Guide's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
