Verdict
The clearest difference is price: QuarterMinder at Free against Pretiosa's $3.99. QuarterMinder also leads on ratings volume (94 vs 6) and iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). Pretiosa's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). On review sentiment, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
