Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: AR Apps at 4.4 against VR Creator's 4.0. AR Apps also leads on ratings volume (629 vs 52) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). VR Creator's advantage is review sentiment (47% vs 29%). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

AR Apps holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: AR Apps has 629 ratings behind it against 52, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of VR Creator's written reviews are positive against 29% of AR Apps's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
