Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Goliathon at 100% against Wahoo's 43%. Goliathon also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Wahoo's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (43K vs 5). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
