Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Countdown at 5.0 against Floating Clock's 4.5. Countdown also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 4). Floating Clock's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 7 months) and ratings volume (581 vs 2). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
