Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: chicki at 5.0 against Google Cloud's 3.4. chicki also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Google Cloud's advantage is ratings volume (105 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

chicki holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Cloud has 105 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
