Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: PointSolutions at 4.4 against LMU Mobile's 1.6. PointSolutions also leads on update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 8 months) and ratings volume (12K vs 14). LMU Mobile's advantage is monetization model (free vs subscription) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 13.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
