Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pureist at none against Shot Scope's 1. Pureist also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Shot Scope's advantage is ratings volume (1.3K vs 1) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
