Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: WoWSkill at none against Guild HQ's shown. WoWSkill also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Guild HQ's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
