Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Coverage Map at Free against NoTricker's $0.99. Coverage Map also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (822 vs 2). NoTricker's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 68%). On in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
