Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lending Evidence at none against Borrow's 3. Lending Evidence also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Borrow's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (4 vs 1). On price there is nothing between them.
