Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ELZApp at none against Countdown's 1. ELZApp also leads on iOS requirement (13.4 vs 18.0). Countdown's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 10 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
