Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: BCM Request at none against L1's shown. BCM Request also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 16.0). L1's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 16 months) and review sentiment (67% vs 50%). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
