Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Glitchshop at Free against Text OCR Search's $0.99. Glitchshop also leads on review sentiment (72% vs 50%) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 9 months). Text OCR Search's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 4) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
