Verdict
The clearest difference is price: CC Card Deck at Free against QR Counter's $2.99. CC Card Deck also leads on rating (4.8 vs 1.9) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 18 months). QR Counter's advantage is chart position (#198 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). On review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
