Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Panostory Pro at none against Image Compressor's shown. Panostory Pro also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Image Compressor's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 4.1) and monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). On price, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Panostory Pro sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Image Compressor sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
