Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Springer at none against Flip Grip's 1. Springer also leads on review sentiment (98% vs 87%). Flip Grip's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (4.6 vs 4.2). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.

Flip Grip holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.2. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 16 and 37 respectively.
