Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Kava at none against Time & Pour's 4. Kava also leads on ratings volume (9 vs 1) and iOS requirement (16.1 vs 18.0). Time & Pour's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 10 days). On price, rating, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
