Verdict

The call

The Source and Funker530 both sit at 5.0 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of The Source's written reviews are positive against 64% of Funker530's. The Source also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 19 months). Funker530's advantage is ratings volume (4.9K vs 14). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
