Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: MorphZing at freemium against Lightstead's subscription. MorphZing also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). Lightstead's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
