Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: No Crop at 75% against Background Color Editor's 20%. No Crop also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (135 vs 22). Background Color Editor's advantage is monetization model (free vs freemium) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
