Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Ride Lumos at none against Conversation experience's shown. Ride Lumos also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.8.3). Conversation experience's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
