Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Garnest at 100% against GoBus's 14%. Garnest also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.2) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 weeks). GoBus's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (26 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
