Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lumen Viewer at none against Spells List 5e's 11. Lumen Viewer also leads on ads (none vs shown). Spells List 5e's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (12.4 vs 17.6). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
