Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Wallbox at 4.5 against LabCom's 2.5. Wallbox also leads on ratings volume (3.8K vs 6) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). LabCom's advantage is monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
