Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: OKview at 5.0 against LaView Connect's 3.9. OKview also leads on iOS requirement (8.0 vs 11.0). LaView Connect's advantage is ratings volume (635 vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
