Verdict
The clearest difference is price: GlitchCam at Free against Decim8's $0.99. GlitchCam also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.8) and review sentiment (66% vs 52%). Decim8's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (weekly vs every 6 weeks). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
