Verdict
Sticker Maker Studio and Gifly both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 95% of Gifly's written reviews are positive against 60% of Sticker Maker Studio's. Gifly also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Sticker Maker Studio's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (80K vs 51). On price, rating, ads and monetization model there is nothing between them.
