Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Given at 100% against WAS's 54%. Given also leads on price (Free vs $2.49) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). WAS's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
