Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TideRide at 5.0 against ShredLights's 4.1. TideRide also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 75%). ShredLights's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 6 months) and ratings volume (11 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
