Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: QTConnect at none against Pi Network's shown. QTConnect also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and update cadence (monthly vs every 3 months). Pi Network's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 7). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
