Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Tidy at Free against TimeLoop's $1.99. Tidy also leads on update cadence (every 2 months vs every 15 months). TimeLoop's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ratings volume (3 vs 1). On rating, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
