Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: DocIt at none against fGet's shown. DocIt also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). fGet's advantage is ratings volume (989 vs 3) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
