ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

SpeedTalkMobile holds the better App Store score, 2.6 against 2.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 110 and 23 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 29% of SpeedTalkMobile's written reviews are positive against 45% of Fonus's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
