Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ArmorMaker at none against Instant Armory's 7. ArmorMaker also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 85%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). Instant Armory's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 21 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
