Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shut Up Fly at none against LiteByte's 9. Shut Up Fly also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 9 days). LiteByte's advantage is ratings volume (33 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
