The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Minimal Type at none against Sootly's 3. Minimal Type also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.6). Sootly's advantage is ratings volume (22 vs 1). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
