Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: X at 5.0 against Google Ads's 4.4. X also leads on review sentiment (60% vs 22%) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Google Ads's advantage is ratings volume (5.1K vs 21) and chart position (#125 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

X holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Ads has 5.1K ratings behind it against 21, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 22% of Google Ads's written reviews are positive against 60% of X's.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Google Ads ships an update fortnightly, X every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 16, 2026 respectively.
