Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Crier App at none against CrowdWork's shown. Crier App also leads on ratings volume (57 vs 4) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). CrowdWork's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 90%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
