Expo Go and AlertHawk both sit at 4.8 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of AlertHawk's written reviews are positive against 55% of Expo Go's. AlertHawk also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Expo Go's advantage is ratings volume (7.7K vs 3) and chart position (#7 vs unranked). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
