Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: golfity at free against PuttingAce's paid. golfity also leads on ratings volume (112 vs 13) and device support (3 vs 1). PuttingAce's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 68%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

PuttingAce holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6.
