Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Owloop at 100% against Whisper Transcription's 44%. Owloop also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.9) and iOS requirement (16 vs 18.0). Whisper Transcription's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 months) and ratings volume (174 vs 3). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
