Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: TYKO at free with in-app purchases against Korean Language's subscription. TYKO also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 months vs every 21 months). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
