Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TopReader at none against 時報読み上げちゃん's 1. TopReader also leads on review sentiment (62% vs 42%). 時報読み上げちゃん's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 17.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
