Verdict
Tock and ResX both sit at 4.9 stars, but that hides the real split: 73% of ResX's written reviews are positive against 25% of Tock's. ResX also leads on chart position (#10 vs #204) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 4 weeks). Tock's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 8) and ads (none vs shown). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.
