Verdict

The call

Padlet and Forms+ both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 61% of Padlet's written reviews are positive against 44% of Forms+'s. Forms+'s advantage is chart position (#160 vs unranked) and update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
