Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Tally Tapper at none against Altimate's 1. The Tally Tapper also leads on ads (none vs shown). Altimate's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 10 months). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
