Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: mFotoGem at none against Whistle Camera's 1. mFotoGem also leads on ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 15.0). Whistle Camera's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 47 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
