Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Snifferton at none against NetStat's shown. Snifferton also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 4 months). NetStat's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.6). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
