Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Cheatsheet at 1.9K against Lofumi's 46. On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Cheatsheet sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Lofumi sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.7 for Cheatsheet against 4.7 for Lofumi.
