Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: iLists at none against Lists Manager's shown. iLists also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Lists Manager's advantage is device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 26.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
