Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Voice Countdown Timer at none against Overlay Timer's 2. Voice Countdown Timer also leads on iOS requirement (15.8.3 vs 17.0). Overlay Timer's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (daily vs every 2 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
