Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tips at none against Tipify's 2. Tips also leads on ratings volume (153 vs 4) and iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.2). Tipify's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 13 months). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
