The clearest difference is review sentiment: Wird at 100% against JO_Academy's 30%. Wird also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.6) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks). JO_Academy's advantage is ratings volume (408 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
