Verdict
The clearest difference is price: LakePilot at Free against Swiss Grid Coordinates Tool's $3.99. LakePilot also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Swiss Grid Coordinates Tool's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.1). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
