Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Font‏s at Free against AnyFont's $1.99. Font‏s also leads on ads (none vs shown). AnyFont's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 3.0) and ratings volume (26K vs 25). On in-app purchases, monetization model, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
