Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: GX at 3.7 against 4DRC Air's 2.9.

On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

GX holds the better App Store score, 3.7 against 2.9. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: 4DRC Air has 31 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of GX's written reviews are positive against 40% of 4DRC Air's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

GX ships an update every 2 months, 4DRC Air every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on July 5, 2026 and September 5, 2026 respectively.
