Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Flip Clock at Free against Cloki's $7.99. Flip Clock also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (69K vs 34). Cloki's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On update cadence, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
