Quivers also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). Lightspeed Retail (X)'s advantage is update cadence (every 9 days vs every 6 weeks) and rating (3.0 vs 2.8). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Lightspeed Retail (X) holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 2.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lightspeed Retail (X) has 47 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Quivers's written reviews are positive against 18% of Lightspeed Retail (X)'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
