Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: AV Spin Cycle at 88% against WASH's 24%. AV Spin Cycle also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.4) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.1). WASH's advantage is update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (198K vs 1.8K). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
