Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: StudyIB at 5.0 against Snowflake's 2.0. StudyIB also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 months). Snowflake's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 6) and ads (none vs shown). On price, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
