Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: LuvInspire at free against WISEcode UPF Detector's free with in-app purchases. LuvInspire also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and review sentiment (100% vs 84%). WISEcode UPF Detector's advantage is ratings volume (1.8K vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
