Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: GOV.UK One Login at none against WhichStats's 2. GOV.UK One Login also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). WhichStats's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.7). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
