Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: TimeGlow at 5.0 against SuperX's 4.0. TimeGlow also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 5 months) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). SuperX's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (20 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
