Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MojiPic at 5.0 against Microscope's 2.0. MojiPic also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 10 months) and review sentiment (15% vs 4%). Microscope's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
