Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Super Gravitron at none against Monocular Shot's shown. Super Gravitron also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 12.0). Monocular Shot's advantage is update cadence (every 8 months vs every 37 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
