Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Flicker at 5.0 against mymind's 4.0. Flicker also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). mymind's advantage is monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and ratings volume (417 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
