Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Clear Days at none against BurnBar's shown. Clear Days also leads on iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.0). BurnBar's advantage is update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks) and ratings volume (451 vs 7). On price, rating, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. BurnBar sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and Clear Days sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for BurnBar against 4.7 for Clear Days. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: BurnBar has 451 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two.
BurnBar ships an update every 3 days, Clear Days every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
