Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: GoldstarCMS at 67% against InAuto's 33%. GoldstarCMS also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and ratings volume (6.8K vs 7). InAuto's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
