Loft Advisors also leads on rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 2 months). First Interstate Bank Mobile's advantage is ratings volume (27K vs 259) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
