Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: FlickType at 4.0 against SureDriver's 3.0. FlickType also leads on ratings volume (12K vs 2) and update cadence (every 8 days vs every 5 weeks). SureDriver's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 14.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
