Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WhatTheFlag at none against Flags Quiz's 1. WhatTheFlag also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Flags Quiz's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
