Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Photo Pixelizer at Free against PixArtCam's $0.49. Photo Pixelizer also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.5). PixArtCam's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 8 months vs every 30 months). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
