Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Moses Method at none against Cronometer's shown. Moses Method also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 69%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Cronometer's advantage is ratings volume (101K vs 3) and chart position (#16 vs unranked). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
