Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: TimeBlocks at 5.0 against MPDX's 2.9. TimeBlocks also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). MPDX's advantage is ratings volume (41 vs 1) and iOS requirement (14.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
