Make time a little more playful with Pixel Clock - Grid. This landscape clock uses animated pixel digits and lets you customize the pixel color, background, and themes. Add a moving RGB border, falling-digit transitions, heart balloons triggered by a shake, and a weekday indicator. Swipe to the second clock to view another time zone, adjust its offset, and enjoy shatter-and-restore effects and a seconds progress bar. The settings menu supports 13 languages. On first launch, the app selects a matching device language when available; you can change it any time. If your language is not supported, English is used.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Pixel Clock at every 6 days against SmartStream Q's monthly. SmartStream Q's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
