Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Snippety at none against Office Reader's shown. Snippety also leads on review sentiment (88% vs 63%) and update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). Office Reader's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs paid). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
