Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: EmpireOS at every 3 weeks against CMSWire's every 5 months. EmpireOS also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). CMSWire's advantage is ratings volume (11 vs 1). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.9 for CMSWire against 5.0 for EmpireOS. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: CMSWire has 11 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
