Verdict
The clearest difference is price: LessonLoop at Free against Taichi Temple's $5.99. LessonLoop also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). Taichi Temple's advantage is chart position (#200 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
