Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Harmony at 100% against Study Timer!'s 22%. Harmony also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Study Timer!'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 7 months) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
