Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Laundry Guide at none against WashGuard's 2. Laundry Guide also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (7.1 vs 18.0). WashGuard's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 10 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
