Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: FCS at none against BasketLife's shown. FCS also leads on device support (3 vs 1). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BasketLife sells 13 one-off in-app purchases and FCS sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
