Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Google Chrome at 4.7 against Veracity's 2.2. Google Chrome also leads on review sentiment (61% vs 30%) and ratings volume (3.9M vs 226). Veracity's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
