The call

The clearest difference is price: FlashToPass at Free against ArithmeTick's $1.99. FlashToPass also leads on rating (4.4 vs 4.2) and ratings volume (923 vs 246). ArithmeTick's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 4 months). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
