Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lock Shield at none against Best Phone Security's 1. Lock Shield also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Best Phone Security's advantage is ratings volume (3K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
