Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Speedo iQ at none against Wahoo's 2. Speedo iQ also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). Wahoo's advantage is ratings volume (43K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
