Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Prospector Run at Free against Scarecase's $1.99. Prospector Run also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 10 months). Scarecase's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
