Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: LapseForge at 100% against PicTimer+'s 25%. LapseForge also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). PicTimer+'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
