Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Termix Pro at 4.7 against UCoW's 3.8. Termix Pro also leads on review sentiment (70% vs 54%) and ratings volume (98 vs 12). UCoW's advantage is price ($3.99 vs $9.99) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 2 months). On ads, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS

Termix Pro holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Termix Pro has 98 ratings behind it against 12, so its average is the more settled of the two.
