Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: iCarTool Camera at none against USB Camera pro's shown. iCarTool Camera also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.0). USB Camera pro's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
