Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Space/Time at 100% against Thai Airways's 15%. Space/Time also leads on rating (5.0 vs 3.3) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). Thai Airways's advantage is ratings volume (226 vs 1) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
