Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Team lap timer at none against Lap Counter's 1. Team lap timer also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 26.0). Lap Counter's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 9 months). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
