Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Shansan Super Timer at none against Starlight Clock's 1. Shansan Super Timer also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 3 months). Starlight Clock's advantage is iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.5). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
