Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TickClock at none against FlipClock's shown. TickClock also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). FlipClock's advantage is ratings volume (39 vs 8) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 14.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
