Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Maxview Roam at none against AL's 1. Maxview Roam also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). AL's advantage is review sentiment (33% vs 9%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
