Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SkinPal at none against Hobby Kit's 4. SkinPal also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks). Hobby Kit's advantage is ratings volume (16 vs 2). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
