Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Fast Slow at 100% against Fasty's 8%. Fast Slow also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 9 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Fasty's advantage is ratings volume (1.5K vs 39) and iOS requirement (16.5 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Fasty sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per 7 days and Fast Slow sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
