Verdict

The call

FMB and MyFMB both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 93% of FMB's written reviews are positive against 67% of MyFMB's. FMB also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and ratings volume (2K vs 274). MyFMB's advantage is update cadence (monthly vs every 5 months). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
