Verdict

The call

QLess and WhereT? both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 100% of WhereT?'s written reviews are positive against 50% of QLess's. WhereT? also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). QLess's advantage is ratings volume (12K vs 17) and iOS requirement (12.3 vs 15.1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
