Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QR Debug at none against Filock's 1. QR Debug also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). Filock's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 15 months) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
