Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Subnet Plus at 4.7 against GV's 3.0. Subnet Plus also leads on review sentiment (89% vs 50%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 8 months). GV's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
