Verdict

The call

Faxo and sub2me both sit at 4.6 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of sub2me's written reviews are positive against 50% of Faxo's. sub2me also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10). Faxo's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (216 vs 3). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
