Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Vince at 4.9 against J.Crew's 3.1. Vince also leads on review sentiment (72% vs 48%) and ratings volume (4.5K vs 905). J.Crew's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Vince holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Vince has 4.5K ratings behind it against 905, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 72% of Vince's written reviews are positive against 48% of J.Crew's.
