Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Bonstructer at none against Receipt Lens's shown. Bonstructer also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs monthly). Receipt Lens's advantage is chart position (#118 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
