Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Renner at 4.8 against Gloo Messaging's 2.3. Renner also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Gloo Messaging's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months) and review sentiment (10% vs 0%). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Renner holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 2.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 17 and 61 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of Renner's written reviews are positive against 10% of Gloo Messaging's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Renner ships an update every 14 months, Gloo Messaging every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 1, 2026 and August 14, 2026 respectively.
