Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: A1 Cloud at 5.0 against Google Cloud's 3.4. A1 Cloud also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 17.0). Google Cloud's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (102 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
