Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: RuinFilter at Free against Gif Me! Camera's $1.99. RuinFilter also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 5 weeks). Gif Me! Camera's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
