Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Change.org at none against Wavepoint's 3. Change.org also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (100 vs 8). Wavepoint's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 8 days). On price, rating, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
