Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HD Tattoo Camera at none against GHOSTLINE's 2. HD Tattoo Camera also leads on iOS requirement (6.0 vs 17.0). GHOSTLINE's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 6 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
