Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Voice Memos (Recorder) at Free against Chronometer and Countdown's $0.99. Voice Memos (Recorder) also leads on rating (4.4 vs 1.0) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 56 months). Chronometer and Countdown's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 26.0). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
