Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Corebound at 91% against Mech Pilot Lite's 25%. Corebound also leads on rating (4.9 vs 3.9) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 9 months). Mech Pilot Lite's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
