Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Sniplet at none against Instructions's shown. Sniplet also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly). Instructions's advantage is iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
