Verdict
The clearest difference is price: NVC Home at Free against Stash's $5.99. NVC Home also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Stash's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (1.2K vs 1). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
