Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Holy Grounds Coffee at none against Tim Hortons's shown. Holy Grounds Coffee also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Tim Hortons's advantage is ratings volume (60K vs 25) and chart position (#164 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
