Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Crop Designer at none against Piercing Parlor's shown. Crop Designer also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). Piercing Parlor's advantage is ratings volume (17K vs 4.5K). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
