Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: JW Service at none against Floating Clock's shown. JW Service also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Floating Clock's advantage is device support (5 vs 2) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). On price, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
