LM's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (5 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Magic Webcam sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and LM sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
