Verdict
InsTake and Grid both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 88% of Grid's written reviews are positive against 32% of InsTake's. InsTake's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and ratings volume (5.6K vs 798). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
