Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Stylu at none against Glamsquad's shown. Stylu also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 66%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Glamsquad's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (16K vs 1). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Glamsquad against 5.0 for Stylu. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Glamsquad has 16K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 66% of Glamsquad's written reviews are positive against 100% of Stylu's.
Glamsquad ships an update fortnightly, Stylu every 4 months. The most recent releases landed on September 23, 2026 and June 25, 2026 respectively.
