Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: NFC Reader at 3.7 against Super NFC's 2.8. NFC Reader also leads on ratings volume (43 vs 5). Super NFC's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and in-app purchases (none vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

NFC Reader holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: NFC Reader has 43 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of NFC Reader's written reviews are positive against 40% of Super NFC's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
