Verdict
Tester and Supanator both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 90% of Tester's written reviews are positive against 33% of Supanator's. Tester also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 weeks) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
