Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pratilipi at 4.8 against ScrollStack's 1.0. Pratilipi also leads on ratings volume (1.9K vs 1). ScrollStack's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 11) and ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Pratilipi sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. ScrollStack asks for nothing beyond the download.
Pratilipi holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 1.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pratilipi has 1.9K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
