Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Custom Counter at none against Counter≜'s shown. Custom Counter also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). Counter≜'s advantage is ratings volume (2.5K vs 3) and device support (4 vs 1). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
