Streamie's advantage is ratings volume (135 vs 1) and device support (5 vs 2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Streamie sells 13 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and SnipeScanner sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
