Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: XMEye Pro at none against FairAuth's 2. XMEye Pro also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). FairAuth's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
