Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Mini Focus Timer at none against HabitPress's 1. Mini Focus Timer also leads on update cadence (every 8 days vs every 3 months). HabitPress's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
