FrontDepth View provides real-time visualization of both TrueDepth camera data and front camera imagery. You can switch between the front camera view, the TrueDepth depth view, or a combined mode that merges both sources to enhance environmental awareness and depth perception. * FrontDepth modes (Options 3 and 4) are particularly effective in low-light or dark environments, helping to reveal surrounding structures and spatial depth. The visible depth range can be adjusted using the slider at the bottom of the screen. * Combined modes (Options 2 and 4) blend front camera imagery with TrueDepth data to enhance object contours and improve depth detail. * In Combined mode, tap the subview to enlarge it for a closer inspection. Tap again to return to the split or combined layout. * 3D Point Cloud View allows you to freely explore your surroundings in an interactive 3D perspective by panning the screen. * The center-point depth is displayed in real time in centimeters. You can capture screenshots at any time by tapping the camera icon, and view your saved images by tapping the photo gallery icon. If you want to view back depth image through LiDAR and back camera, please check our app "LiDAR View". If you want to automatically measure facial features in real time using the TrueDepth camera, please check our app “Measure Face”.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: FrontDepth View at none against Depth Estimation's shown. FrontDepth View also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 17.7.2). Depth Estimation's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
