Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Camera Remote Control at none against Ola's 6. Camera Remote Control also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 26.0). Ola's advantage is update cadence (every 8 days vs every 6 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
