Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Windfall at 5.0 against Finma's 4.6. Finma's advantage is ratings volume (44 vs 2) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and ads 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. Finma sells 7 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Windfall sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Windfall holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Finma has 44 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 50% and 50% positive.
Finma ships an update every 2 weeks, Windfall every 8 days. Both last shipped on October 30, 2026.
