Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: The Residence at 100% against FasCard's 14%. The Residence also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.1) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months). FasCard's advantage is ratings volume (163 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
