Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Google Ads at 4.4 against Qlik Sense Client's 3.8. Google Ads also leads on ratings volume (5K vs 17) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). Qlik Sense Client's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 22%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Google Ads holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Ads has 5K ratings behind it against 17, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Google Ads's written reviews are positive against 40% of Qlik Sense Client's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Google Ads ships an update fortnightly, Qlik Sense Client every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and August 25, 2026 respectively.
