Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Fast Tracker at monthly against Daily Fast's every 5 months. Fast Tracker also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). Daily Fast's advantage is ratings volume (3.5K vs 430). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
