Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Stairs at 4.6 against Flap's 3.8. Stairs also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ratings volume (24K vs 22). Flap's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 13.0). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Flap sells 5 one-off in-app purchases. Stairs asks for nothing beyond the download.
Stairs holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Stairs has 24K ratings behind it against 22, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 69% of Flap's written reviews are positive against 68% of Stairs's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
