Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Q at 3.0 against iDocCam's 2.4. Q also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 3) and ads (none vs shown). iDocCam's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months) and review sentiment (30% vs 19%). On price, ratings volume and device support there is nothing between them.
