Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: IPLP at none against MapTap.gg's 2. IPLP also leads on iOS requirement (14.0.0 vs 17.6). MapTap.gg's advantage is ratings volume (17K vs 1) and chart position (#56 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
