Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Learn BASIC Programming at none against Lecture Recorder's 3. Learn BASIC Programming also leads on iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). Lecture Recorder's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
