Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Perisher at every 2 weeks against Lynx's every 4 months. Perisher also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). Lynx's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
