Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Star Duster at 5.0 against iBomber's 3.8. Star Duster also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). iBomber's advantage is ratings volume (24 vs 2) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 14.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
