Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Qestra at 5.0 against SHARE Mobile Library's 4.4. Qestra also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). SHARE Mobile Library's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (43 vs 1). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
