Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: LloydsSmart at none against Drive MX's shown. LloydsSmart also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and review sentiment (22% vs 9%). Drive MX's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 7 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
