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. Faxo sells 21 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month and botcamp sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
