Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: SimpleClock at none against Floating Clock's shown. SimpleClock also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Floating Clock's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 3). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
