Verdict
The clearest difference is price: TempPro BBQ at Free against Simple Date Wheel's $0.99. TempPro BBQ also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (25K vs 10). Simple Date Wheel's advantage is review sentiment (73% vs 54%) and update cadence (every 8 days vs monthly). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
