Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Glass at free with in-app purchases against Wallaroo's subscription. Glass also leads on review sentiment (83% vs 58%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). Wallaroo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
