Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Full Scale AR at none against Compass's 2. Full Scale AR also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 13 months). Compass's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
