Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: PlanPop at none against Tiny Calendar's 10. PlanPop also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 months). Tiny Calendar's advantage is ratings volume (21K vs 965) and device support (4 vs 1). On price and rating there is nothing between them.
