Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Creative Preview at 4.3 against Justinmind's 3.3. Justinmind's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). On price, ratings volume, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Creative Preview holds the better App Store score, 4.3 against 3.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 15 and 24 respectively.
