Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: QR課題チェック at none against Pomodoro Timer's 5. QR課題チェック also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). Pomodoro Timer's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 26.1). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
