Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Snap Away at 100% against Forex Watch's 45%. Snap Away also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and device support (3 vs 1). Forex Watch's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 months). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
