The call

The clearest difference is rating: Wordfully at 4.7 against Cylinders's 4.2. Wordfully also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks) and ratings volume (11K vs 1.3K). Cylinders's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.6). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
