Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: VidHub at Free against Stash's $5.99. VidHub also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Stash's advantage is chart position (#7 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
