Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Stopwatch´ at 4.6 against Hot Tools's 4.0. Stopwatch´ also leads on update cadence (monthly vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (305 vs 1). Hot Tools's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
