Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SquareUp at none against Personal Sticker Maker's 1. SquareUp also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Personal Sticker Maker's advantage is ratings volume (1.1K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
