Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Superimpose+ at Free against PhotoLayers Pro's $4.99. Superimpose+ also leads on review sentiment (78% vs 60%) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). PhotoLayers Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
