The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 极简桌面时钟 at none against TickClock's 3. 极简桌面时钟 also leads on iOS requirement (11.0 vs 14.0). TickClock's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
