Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Lulus at none against Anthropologie's shown. Lulus also leads on monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (16.4 vs 18.0). Anthropologie's advantage is review sentiment (63% vs 47%) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for Anthropologie against 4.9 for Lulus.

Written reviews are what separate them: 63% of Anthropologie's written reviews are positive against 47% of Lulus's.
