Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FourFourTwo Magazine at 4.8 against Caught Offside's 3.1. FourFourTwo Magazine also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (89 vs 8). Caught Offside's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 8 months) and review sentiment (56% vs 38%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Caught Offside sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and FourFourTwo Magazine sells 22 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FourFourTwo Magazine holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FourFourTwo Magazine has 89 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Caught Offside's written reviews are positive against 38% of FourFourTwo Magazine's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Caught Offside ships an update every 2 months, FourFourTwo Magazine every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on October 31, 2026 and November 1, 2026 respectively.
