Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Illcurrency at 4.9 against Foams App's 4.1. Illcurrency also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 27 months) and ratings volume (142 vs 21). Foams App's advantage is monetization model (free vs paid). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
