Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: WikiNearby at none against Vignette's 2. WikiNearby also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 11 days vs every 5 weeks). Vignette's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.2). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
