Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Packed at Free against The Shared Cart's $1.99. Packed also leads on ratings volume (3.5K vs 1) and chart position (#140 vs unranked). The Shared Cart's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.5). On update cadence, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
