Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: U'Wine at none against Apogea's 1. U'Wine also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.4). Apogea's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
