Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Recall at 5.0 against WordPress's 4.6. Recall also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). WordPress's advantage is ratings volume (22K vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Recall holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WordPress has 22K ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
