Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Winote at Free against Board Game Stats's $5.99. Winote also leads on iOS requirement (13.6 vs 15). Board Game Stats's advantage is review sentiment (88% vs 50%) and ads (none vs shown). On rating, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
