Verdict
The clearest difference is price: FindBao at Free against Portable Light Meter's $0.99. FindBao also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 8 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Portable Light Meter's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 5). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
