Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: LAVA AR at 50% against AR Events.io's 0%. LAVA AR also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 13.0). AR Events.io's advantage is rating (4.3 vs 2.3) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
