Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BRBNFNDR at none against Get Allocated's shown. BRBNFNDR also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.6) and ratings volume (65 vs 7). Get Allocated's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
