Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: POWERbot at none against WeBack's shown. POWERbot also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported). WeBack's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (300 vs 31). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 1.7 for WeBack against 1.7 for POWERbot.
