Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: QDesigner at Free against Clean OSC's $4.99. QDesigner also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (17.5 vs 26.0). Clean OSC's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and device support (4 vs 1). On ads there is nothing between them.
