Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Stick at Free against The Lost Shield's $1.99. Stick also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 65%) and in-app purchases (none vs 3). The Lost Shield's advantage is ratings volume (29 vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.5). On rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
