Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Timely at 4.8 against TuTuLock's 2.9. Timely also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 22 months) and ratings volume (137 vs 8). TuTuLock's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 3) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
