Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Courmayeur at none against White Risk's 2. Courmayeur also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%). White Risk's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
