For forty-nine days, or seven weeks, we take on a discipline and an obligation to mindfully enter the day, to be aware of its potential power to matter, to make a difference, to make it count for something. I offer a set of forty-nine cards, divided into seven spiritual principles: Decide, Discern, Choose, Hope, Imagine, Courage, and Pray. Each day its own thought, each week its own theme, to help illuminate your days. We count, and in doing so, make an accounting of who we are and who we want to be." - Rabbi Karyn Kedar

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Jewishwise at Free against Omer's $4.99. Jewishwise also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 months). Omer's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 16.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
