Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Bricks Camera at 4.5 against Pixelizr's 3.3. Bricks Camera also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 27 months). Pixelizr's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
