Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: The Container Store at 4.8 against Decimator's 4.3. The Container Store also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (15K vs 3). Decimator's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
The Container Store holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: The Container Store has 15K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 56% of Decimator's written reviews are positive against 40% of The Container Store's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Decimator ships an update every 9 months, The Container Store every 4 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 7, 2026 and October 15, 2026 respectively.
