Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Prismark at none against Visual IQ's 4. Prismark also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Visual IQ's advantage is ratings volume (54 vs 1) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
