Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Flip Clock at 4.6 against ClockDisplay's 3.5. Flip Clock also leads on ratings volume (69K vs 6) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 4 months). ClockDisplay's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
