The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: LBP at 100% against SMART BMS's 17%. LBP also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). SMART BMS's advantage is ratings volume (78 vs 7) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
