Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Simons at 38% against Waddington's Auctions's 0%. Simons also leads on ads (none vs shown). Waddington's Auctions's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 months) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
