Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: iLot at 3.5 against Provision's 2.9. iLot also leads on monetization model (free vs subscription) and review sentiment (50% vs 21%). Provision's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (454 vs 13). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
