Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Google Cloud at 3.4 against AccessMyLAN's 1.4. Google Cloud also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (100 vs 13). AccessMyLAN's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
