Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: The Local Rewards at none against Weigel's's shown. The Local Rewards also leads on monetization model (free vs ad-supported) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 12.0). Weigel's's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 31 months) and ratings volume (5K vs 2). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
