Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: C5 Scribe at none against Vumedi's shown. C5 Scribe also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.0). Vumedi's advantage is ratings volume (4.4K vs 2) and update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
