Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: GoodRec at 14K against Fanaty's 87. GoodRec also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). Fanaty's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Fanaty against 4.9 for GoodRec. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GoodRec has 14K ratings behind it against 87, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 82% of Fanaty's written reviews are positive against 84% of GoodRec's.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 10, 2026 respectively.
