Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Oscar's Bubbles at none against dots's shown. Oscar's Bubbles also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). dots's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
