Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: TYPBC at none against Rowing Stroke Rate Stopwatch's 2. TYPBC also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Rowing Stroke Rate Stopwatch's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
