Add your songs. Create your gigs. Push play and let the app automatically take you through your gig. Great for placing the iPad on the floor and out of the way of your fans. No more pushing play, or scrolling while playing. LyricFlow scrolls your song, shows the tile of the next song at the end and automatically opens the next song. Set a custom delay for each song to have the scroll wait a certain time period before scrolling. Great for songs with long intros, or to allow some time for "rock talk". Songs can be manually scrolled with no impact to the automatic scrolling behavior. All data is stored locally on your device and also on your iCloud account. If you have the app installed on multiple devices, the data will sync across all of them that are on the same account.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: CMA Connect at Free against LyricFlow's $0.99. CMA Connect also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.6). LyricFlow's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
