Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Stackster at none against Tap Stacks's shown. Stackster also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Tap Stacks's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Stackster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Tap Stacks has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
