Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Talkdown at none against Text To Speech's shown. Talkdown also leads on update cadence (weekly vs fortnightly). Text To Speech's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 26.0). On price and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
