Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LiHunter at none against Motion Catch's 1. LiHunter also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Motion Catch's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 43 months). On price there is nothing between them.
