Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WITS at none against Boxes's 15. WITS also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and review sentiment (100% vs 91%). Boxes's advantage is ratings volume (953 vs 2) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
