Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: IACP at 5.0 against TMX Messenger's 4.5. IACP also leads on iOS requirement (16.4 vs 26.0). TMX Messenger's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (weekly vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
