Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Tarumah at 100% against Church App's 52%. Tarumah also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). Church App's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months) and ratings volume (994 vs 27). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
