Verdict

The call

FTMO and Wiser both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 81% of FTMO's written reviews are positive against 41% of Wiser's. FTMO also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Wiser's advantage is ratings volume (56K vs 2.6K) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
