Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Google Translate at weekly against WikiFind Dictionary's every 3 months. Google Translate also leads on chart position (#2 vs unranked). WikiFind Dictionary's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
