Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Digital Clock at 69K against Floating Clock's 19. Digital Clock also leads on device support (4 vs 2). Floating Clock's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Digital Clock sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and Floating Clock sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.49 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Floating Clock holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Digital Clock has 69K ratings behind it against 19, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and July 7, 2026 respectively.
