iGeoTrans X Lite is the free version of iGeoTrans X — a coordinate conversion, mapping, and field survey app for users working with coordinates, boundaries, and spatial data across different countries and regions. The app is not limited to Vietnam. With more than 200 coordinate systems, it converts between local, national, projected, WGS-84, and GPS coordinates for domestic and international projects. It is useful when bringing projected coordinates from documents, drawings, permits, area boundaries, routes, land-use boundaries, or technical datasets onto a map, then using GPS to check locations, navigate, stake out points, survey, compare boundaries, or support real estate asset appraisal. The app also supports custom coordinate systems for project-specific, local, or regional requirements.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GPS TrackMaker at none against iGeoTrans X Lite's 3. iGeoTrans X Lite's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
