Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: G at 3.4 against Rview Pro's 1.9. G also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 4%) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). Rview Pro's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 11.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
