Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Imgpls at Free against ScratchPads's $0.99. Imgpls also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 10 months) and ratings volume (11 vs 1). ScratchPads's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.3) and review sentiment (100% vs 75%). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
