Verdict
SHIFT and Croissant both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of SHIFT's written reviews are positive against 62% of Croissant's. SHIFT also leads on device support (3 vs 1). Croissant's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (548 vs 31). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
