Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Wave Boaters at none against ibble's 6. Wave Boaters also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.6). ibble's advantage is ratings volume (248 vs 17). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
