Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Wahoo at Free against GPX Splice's $1.99. Wahoo also leads on rating (4.7 vs 3.2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). GPX Splice's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
