Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Special Date at none against TreeKit's 1. Special Date also leads on ads (none vs shown). TreeKit's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months) and price ($0.99 vs $1.99). On device support there is nothing between them.
