Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Wi at 3.5 against AirTies Network Visualizer's 2.3. Wi also leads on ratings volume (93 vs 8). AirTies Network Visualizer's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 23%) and iOS requirement (8.0 vs 11.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Wi holds the better App Store score, 3.5 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Wi has 93 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of AirTies Network Visualizer's written reviews are positive against 23% of Wi's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
