Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: WXPL at 100% against Sauce+'s 55%. WXPL also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.8). Sauce+'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 21 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
