Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: MeetCal at 5.0 against WL Analysis's 4.3. MeetCal also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 62%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). WL Analysis's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and ratings volume (46 vs 15). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
