Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Telmex at monthly against LloydsSmart's every 7 months. Telmex also leads on ratings volume (6.1K vs 160). LloydsSmart's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (22% vs 10%). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
