The clearest difference is rating: AFRISOhome at 5.0 against SmartLockBT's 3.7. AFRISOhome also leads on device support (4 vs 2). SmartLockBT's advantage is review sentiment (67% vs 57%) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

AFRISOhome holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 3 respectively.
