Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Weekly Planner at none against Week Calendar's shown. Weekly Planner also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.4) and review sentiment (70% vs 59%). Week Calendar's advantage is update cadence (every 10 days vs every 3 weeks) and device support (5 vs 2). On price, ratings volume, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
