Verdict

The call

Grid and Feed Preview Grid Maker both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Feed Preview Grid Maker's written reviews are positive against 31% of Grid's. Feed Preview Grid Maker also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Grid's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
