Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Spelling Tree at 5.0 against WordSmith™'s 4.5. Spelling Tree also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (8 vs 2). WordSmith™'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (6.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
