Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: WhereWeGo? at 80% against K's 8%. WhereWeGo? also leads on rating (3.7 vs 1.5) and update cadence (every 4 months vs every 17 months). K's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (142 vs 3). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
