Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Bead Studio at 5.0 against StitchShot's 3.0. Bead Studio also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). StitchShot's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
