Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Cozy Couples at none against Tether's shown. Cozy Couples also leads on chart position (#80 vs unranked) and device support (3 vs 1). Tether's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
