Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: vScribe at none against Commure Ambient's 1. vScribe also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Commure Ambient's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (42 vs 1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
