Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: RTA BRAND at every 3 weeks against Scarce's every 10 months. RTA BRAND also leads on ratings volume (635 vs 106). Scarce's advantage is review sentiment (75% vs 60%) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Scarce against 4.8 for RTA BRAND. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RTA BRAND has 635 ratings behind it against 106, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 75% of Scarce's written reviews are positive against 60% of RTA BRAND's.
