Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Wi at 3.1 against i's 2.1. Wi also leads on review sentiment (27% vs 10%) and update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 3 months). i's advantage is ratings volume (83 vs 8). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Wi holds the better App Store score, 3.1 against 2.1. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: i has 83 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 27% of Wi's written reviews are positive against 10% of i's.
