Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: SnapCam at 4.3 against HDX Pro Camera's 1.0. SnapCam also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 4 weeks). HDX Pro Camera's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 18.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
