The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tech Scout Camera at 100% against Prop Screen's 43%. Tech Scout Camera also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). Prop Screen's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Prop Screen sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month and Tech Scout Camera sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $19.99 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
