You can increase or remove these limits by becoming a Werdsmith member. Sync, backup and sharing features are optional, but require a free Werdsmith account. If you choose to become a member, you’ll be charged through your iTunes account at the end of your one-week free trial period, unless you cancel your membership at least 24 hours before it begins.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SchedAI at none against Werdsmith's 7. SchedAI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Werdsmith's advantage is ratings volume (8K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

SchedAI holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Werdsmith has 8K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
