Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: WLNI at 5.0 against TCN's 4.4. WLNI also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 62%). TCN's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (monthly vs every 24 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
