Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Famous Classical Singers at none against Tempo's 1. Famous Classical Singers also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). Tempo's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 32 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
