Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Paid Keeper at none against FA Pay's 3. Paid Keeper also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (6.6K vs 37). FA Pay's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 30%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Paid Keeper holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Paid Keeper has 6.6K ratings behind it against 37, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of FA Pay's written reviews are positive against 30% of Paid Keeper's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
