The clearest difference is rating: Q at 3.0 against OvrC's 2.4. Q also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.5). OvrC's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
