Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Emboss Me at Free against StroboScopeApp's $2.99. Emboss Me also leads on review sentiment (40% vs 0%) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). StroboScopeApp's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.8) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 26.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

StroboScopeApp holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Emboss Me has 5 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 40% of Emboss Me's written reviews are positive against 0% of StroboScopeApp's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
