Tile Shift Pro is a clean, modern take on the classic sliding puzzle, with two new puzzles every day: one with a picture and one with numbers. DAILY PICTURE Every day brings a new picture to put back together: masterpieces by painters such as Van Gogh, Monet and Hokusai, plus nature, animals and places. Slide the pieces of the 3x3 picture into place and see how your time compares. Everyone in the world gets the same picture, and every day's puzzle is exactly 20 moves from solved, so it is always a fair race. Stuck? Hold to Peek shows the whole picture. Every picture you solve is kept in your gallery. DAILY LOCKED CHALLENGE Prefer numbers? The Daily Locked Challenge is a 4x4 puzzle in which some tiles are locked and cannot move. You get one attempt a day and a place on the global leaderboard. Both puzzles change at midnight, and solving either one keeps your daily streak going.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Tile Shift Pro at none against MindToday's shown. MindToday's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs fortnightly) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
