Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: North Coast Network at none against TailgateTime's 1. North Coast Network also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). TailgateTime's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 14 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
