Verdict
U.S. Soccer and Ref Insight both sit at 3.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of Ref Insight's written reviews are positive against 27% of U.S. Soccer's. Ref Insight also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). U.S. Soccer's advantage is ratings volume (309 vs 11). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
