Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Bella Capelli Salon at none against Sotheby's's shown. Bella Capelli Salon also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.4). Sotheby's's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
