Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Woven at none against V Locator's shown. Woven also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). V Locator's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs freemium) and ratings volume (10 vs 2). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
