The clearest difference is price: Scrol at Free against Write2Buy's $0.99. Scrol also leads on update cadence (every 4 months vs every 15 months) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). Write2Buy's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 3.6) and ads (none vs shown). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
