LambLock's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 2) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. LambLock sells 11 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Lume. sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
