Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: StrikeZone Bowling at every 2 days against LaneTrax's fortnightly. StrikeZone Bowling also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). LaneTrax's advantage is chart position (#142 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
