Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Sooth at free with in-app purchases against Quit Nicotine's subscription. Sooth also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). Quit Nicotine's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
