Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Image Smith at none against Flux AI's 10. Image Smith also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). Flux AI's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and chart position (#111 vs unranked). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
