Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: QR Code at free with in-app purchases against Camera Detector App's subscription. QR Code also leads on iOS requirement (11.1 vs 15.0). Camera Detector App's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 14 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
