Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is price: Coordinates at Free against Waymarkly's $4.99. Coordinates also leads on ratings volume (6.8K vs 140). Waymarkly's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs monthly). On rating, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
