Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Quick at 100% against APN Settings's 31%. Quick also leads on rating (3.0 vs 2.2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 16.6). APN Settings's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 11 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
