Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: cTrader at 4.8 against SP Quotes's 3.5. cTrader also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (1.8K vs 2). SP Quotes's advantage is iOS requirement (9.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
