The clearest difference is update cadence: Bimostitch at every 3 days against Circular Tiny Planet Editor's every 3 months. Bimostitch also leads on chart position (#59 vs unranked) and review sentiment (83% vs 73%). Circular Tiny Planet Editor's advantage is ratings volume (650 vs 33) and rating (4.7 vs 4.5). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
