Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IAAI at 5.0 against TC Mobile's 3.8. IAAI also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.1 vs 18.0). TC Mobile's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (48 vs 4). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
