Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Dronelink Flight at none against ImageEditor's shown. Dronelink Flight also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17). ImageEditor's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
