Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Tull's Life Count at none against DigitalCounter's shown. Tull's Life Count also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). DigitalCounter's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 11 months) and ratings volume (20 vs 2). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
