Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: LED Message Board at none against LEDit's 15. LED Message Board also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8). LEDit's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (4.3K vs 2). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
