Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: TagTally at none against Make's shown. TagTally also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Make's advantage is ratings volume (206 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Make sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per year and TagTally sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
TagTally holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Make has 206 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 71% of Make's written reviews are positive against 100% of TagTally's.
