Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Study Stack at none against Folderly's 11. Study Stack also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 87%). Folderly's advantage is ratings volume (3.2K vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

Study Stack holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8.
