Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: TPI View at free against Timetastic's freemium. TPI View also leads on update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). Timetastic's advantage is review sentiment (54% vs 31%) and rating (4.8 vs 4.5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
