Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Easy Big Text at none against TextGlow's 1. Easy Big Text also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). TextGlow's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
