Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Quad Clock at none against Dominion's 17. Quad Clock also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 68%). Dominion's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (4.7K vs 1). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
