Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Type Run at 4.1 against Type Run's 1.5. Type Run also leads on ratings volume (31K vs 2) and update cadence (fortnightly vs monthly). Type Run's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
