Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: FastiMate at every 3 weeks against Daily Fast's every 5 months. FastiMate also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 88%). Daily Fast's advantage is ratings volume (3.5K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Daily Fast sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and FastiMate sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FastiMate holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Daily Fast has 3.5K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 88% of Daily Fast's written reviews are positive against 100% of FastiMate's.
Daily Fast ships an update every 5 months, FastiMate every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 3, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
