Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Wellful at none against Binaural Beats's shown. Wellful also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 82%) and iOS requirement (14.2 vs 17). Binaural Beats's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
