Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is monetization model: 习惯岛 at free with in-app purchases against Tiny Habits Tracker's subscription. 习惯岛 also leads on ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Tiny Habits Tracker's advantage is ratings volume (106 vs 3) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 weeks). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
