Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: WDM at 100% against Wave Cloud Phone's 15%. WDM also leads on rating (4.8 vs 3.6) and update cadence (every 9 days vs every 5 months). Wave Cloud Phone's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (43 vs 5). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
