The clearest difference is rating: Salem Fields at 5.0 against myLU's 2.4. Salem Fields also leads on device support (4 vs 2) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). myLU's advantage is ratings volume (202 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
