Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tally at none against Rainbow Counter's 1. Tally also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 43 months). Rainbow Counter's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
