Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Seeing Assistant Magnifier at none against Smart Magnifier's 1. Seeing Assistant Magnifier also leads on rating (4.3 vs 3.9) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 12 months). Smart Magnifier's advantage is review sentiment (71% vs 63%) and iOS requirement (7.0 vs 11.0). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
