Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Lewy Learning Center at none against Ling's 10. The Lewy Learning Center also leads on ads (none vs shown). Ling's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 weeks) and chart position (#62 vs unranked). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
