Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Guru at 12.0 against Impulse's 18.2. On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Guru sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Impulse sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
