Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GenTeam at none against RouterChat's 1. GenTeam also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 9 days) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.0). RouterChat's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.9 vs 4.6). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
