Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Āina Atlas at 5.0 against WingX®'s 3.6. WingX®'s advantage is ratings volume (185 vs 1) and chart position (#189 vs unranked). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model 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. WingX® sells 5 one-off in-app purchases and Āina Atlas sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Āina Atlas holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 3.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: WingX® has 185 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
