Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Face Sketch at Free against FlashFace Full's $3.99. Face Sketch also leads on rating (3.0 vs 2.3) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 5 weeks). FlashFace Full's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and chart position (#33 vs unranked). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
