Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Type at Free against Guard Ninja's $0.95. Type also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Guard Ninja's advantage is ratings volume (46 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 6 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
