Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Text to Speech at 4.4 against Text to Speech's 2.9. Text to Speech also leads on update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (667 vs 23). Text to Speech's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
