The clearest difference is review sentiment: SpeedReader at 100% against Spritz App's 21%. SpeedReader also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.8) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Spritz App's advantage is ratings volume (33 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 15.1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
