Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: WildDet3D at none against Expo Go's shown. WildDet3D also leads on update cadence (daily vs fortnightly) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Expo Go's advantage is ratings volume (7.8K vs 1) and chart position (#8 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
