Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Google Analytics at 4.6 against FanAds's 3.0. Google Analytics also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (5.2K vs 2). FanAds's advantage is review sentiment (80% vs 59%) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Google Analytics holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Google Analytics has 5.2K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 59% of Google Analytics's written reviews are positive against 80% of FanAds's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Google Analytics ships an update every 2 months, FanAds every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and June 9, 2026 respectively.
