Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: TimeCount at weekly against Card Picker's every 6 months. TimeCount also leads on ratings volume (24K vs 7) and rating (4.6 vs 4.3). Card Picker's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
