Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: OBS 4K at 4.8 against OBSCam's 2.3. OBS 4K also leads on review sentiment (29% vs 0%) and ratings volume (23 vs 3). OBSCam's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
