Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: College Algebra at 4.8 against TT Algebra 2's 3.6. College Algebra also leads on review sentiment (82% vs 44%) and ratings volume (602 vs 39). TT Algebra 2's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 7 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
