Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: Lady Tides at free against Periodically's free with in-app purchases. Lady Tides also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7). Periodically's advantage is ratings volume (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
