Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Trichromatic at 5.0 against The Frame Camera's 4.1. Trichromatic also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 months). The Frame Camera's advantage is ratings volume (13 vs 1) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
