Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Final Fantasy Map at none against MasterDex's shown. Final Fantasy Map also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). MasterDex's advantage is rating (4.8 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MasterDex sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Final Fantasy Map sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

MasterDex holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MasterDex has 1.8K ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two.
