Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Japa+ at none against Withmodo's 3. Japa+ also leads on ratings volume (12 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.6). Withmodo's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 13 months). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
